[Resolved] Main nav fonts display "inherit" – How to change font?

[George]

New user here. When I go to Typography > Primary Navigation, I see “inherit” displayed in the “font family” box. I’d like to change the font to “‘Open Sans’, Arial, ‘Sans Serif’. Do I have to edit style.css? Haven’t found a place in GS to do this. ??? Thanks!!

Hi there,

You should just be able to click the select box that says inherit – it will give you a list of different fonts to choose from, including those two.

Let me know if you need more info 🙂

Thanks, Tom. The culprit was a plugin called WP Tabs Widget Pro. It’s working fine now that I deactivated the plugin.

Ah good to know – their plugin might have an error in it causing the issue.

Tom –

It appears that The Events Calendar 4.6.5 free version plugin is conflicting with the GP Premium Typography selector. When I deactivate Event Calendar, the Typography module font chooser/selector works fine. If its active, all I get is the “inherit” option. It’s trying to activate the font dropdown, but it’s not appearing — the select2-container

[DAVID]

Also, it appears to only be the font family selector that is affected. The font size, weight, and text transformations all function normally. You just can’t select the font.

Hi David,

Someone else actually reported this before.

See Tom’s answer here: https://generatepress.com/forums/topic/cant-change-font-faces-in-customizer-while-the-events-calendar-plugin-active/#post-421200

Thanks. Sorry I missed it before I posted.

[Tom]

Haven’t heard anything back yet, I’ll see if I can do something about it on my end.

I just released GPP 1.5.5 which includes a “fix” for this.

Thanks!
